Ask any girl, in this lonely world Ask any girl, she'll say make it last forever I'm holding out my hand, I finally understand So turn out the lights (oh yeah) we'll make it last forever. I've been down the streets of desire Sometimes I was so uninspired You found what was locked up inside of me This could be the night, the night to remember We'll make it last forever This could be the night Oh, to end all nights I've always been the one Lovin' on the run That's when you came undone, oh girl Why do you wait for me? Out on the borderline, between the hurtin' lies And the true emotions, that ,make it last forever This could be the night, the night to remember We'll make it last forever This could be the night Oh, to end all nights I've been down the streets of desire Sometimes I was so uninspired You found what was locked up inside of me This could be the night, the night to remember We'll make it last forever This could be the night Oh, to end all nights This could be the night, the night to remember We'll make it last forever This could be the night Oh, to end all nights To end all nights.
